lichess_simuls

Read-only

Lists public created, started, and finished Lichess Simuls, including host ID/name/rating/online state and event name/text fields, for callers who need public event data. No input is required. OAuth-only pending listings are omitted; the source schema has no participant identity list.

Tool call template

This tool declares no required parameters. Add optional parameters from the input schema as needed.

A3.8/5.0
Behavior4/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint and openWorldHint, but the description adds genuine context beyond them: the three statuses covered, that pending OAuth-only listings are silently excluded, and that the source schema carries no participant identity list. Those exclusions are exactly the kind of behavioral detail an agent cannot infer from annotations alone.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

It is front-loaded with the action and resource, then the returned fields, then the caveats — a sensible order with no repetition. The clause "for callers who need public event data" is mild filler that does not add information.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

With an output schema present, the description need not explain return values, and it still names the key fields plus the two notable limitations (omitted pending/private simuls, missing participant identities). For a zero-parameter read tool this covers what an agent needs to call it correctly.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

The tool takes zero parameters, so the baseline is 4, and the description correctly states "No input is required," confirming there is nothing to supply. No further parameter meaning is needed.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description opens with a specific verb-plus-resource ("Lists public created, started, and finished Lichess Simuls") and even enumerates the returned fields (host ID/name/rating/online state, event name/text), so the resource and scope are unambiguous. It does not name or contrast with any sibling tool, which keeps it at 4 rather than 5.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines3/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

"For callers who need public event data" and "No input is required" imply when to call, and the omission of OAuth-only pending simuls sets a boundary. However, no explicit when-not-to-use condition or alternative tool is given, so guidance remains implied rather than stated.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
